Freedom to farm "every herb bearing seed"
is the first test of religious freedom.
How bad do things have to get before all solutions are considered?

"Cannabis vs. Climate Change"

will be introduced from 4pm to 8pm at the

John Van Duzer Theater, located on the Humboldt

State University campus

in Arcata, California.

Cannabis agriculture is critical to mankind's continued existence on this planet. The sooner we realize how vital hemp is to rebalancing Earth's atmosphere, the better will be our chances for healing our environment and ourselves.

"Cannabis vs. Climate Change": Ultimately good news of something we can do.

Though it’s rise has been measured by land-based monitoring equipment, and the levels of UV-B radiation penetrating Earth's atmosphere from the Sun are acknowledged to have increased, elevated UV-B reaching the surface of the planet are vastly under-regarded by too few scientists and farmers. "Global Broiling" describes intensifying UV-B radiation, diligently monitored, though roundly ignored by entrenched international leadership.

Monoterpenes: Molecule for the 21st Century

In April 2006 a major global revelation was quietly reported in The Guardian newspaper. Climate scientists studying fragrant, aerosol “monoterpenes” produced by the boreal forests, revealed that biogenic, stratospheric aerosols have historically served to refract sunlight. Phytoplankton at the base of the food chain in Earth's oceans and estuaries, also exude monoterpenes.

Monoterpenes shield our planet from deadly UV-B wavelengths of light in two ways. Suspended in the stratosphere like liquid crystals in the sky, they refract UV-B away from the surface of the Earth. Monoterpenes also serve to nucleate bright and persistent clouds, further protecting the planet from the Sun.

Falling from the sky in monoterpene-enhanced showers, it seems logical to reason that the antibiotic, anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-oxidizing and anti-carcinogenic properties of monoterpenes also serve the systemic health of the planet and the creatures upon it, by purifying the water.

It is alarming to consider that half of the boreal forests and phytoplankton had already died before scientific awareness of the protection afforded by them was discovered. Combining the effects from ozone depletion and reduced monoterpene levels, It is not surprising to learn that the intensity and incidence of extreme solar UV-B radiation has increased.

Hemp is uniquely capable of expanding the arable base with a non-invasive pioneer crop, as it repairs the atmosphere, the air, water and soil. Soil conditioning and phytoremediation properties of hemp make it an indispensable tool of organic agriculture.

The volume of aerosol monoterpenes needed to repair our solar shield is enormous. Cannabis is the only crop capable of producing the volume of terpenes needed in the time we may have left to make a difference. Cannabis is also the only crop capable of producing complete nutrition and sustainable biofuels from the same harvest.

Stratospheric aerosol monoterpenes and isoprenes can be reasoned to play a key role in purification of the hydrologic cycle. Biogenic, non-toxic pest control and anti-oxidant properties make Cannabis essential oils immeasurably valuable to the detoxification of our environment.

Hemp harvesting in France

Here the spacing between hemp stalks is even more apparent. Inches apart, not feet.

Can you tell the difference...?

Marijuana plants are multi-branched, planted six feet apart.

"Swiss mix" marijuana

This is a field of marijuana. Note these are multi-branched, exclusively female, grown with plenty of room between each plant.

Harvesting Hemp, Noirmoutier, France 2003

This is "industrial hemp" grown in vast swaths, planted inches apart, pollen-producing males & seeded females mixed. Pollen from this field would make seeds in marijuana plants, rendering them much less salable on the black market. If the DEA really wanted to impact the marijuana trade they wouldn't be pulling up feral hemp in the midwest, they'd be encouraging American farmers to plant hemp, to naturally balance high- and low-THC producing strains of Cannabis.

Mission Statement

The mission of the California Cannabis Ministry is to identify Cannabis agriculture as integral to a free society and essential for human survival.

The California Cannabis Ministry is meant to serve everyone, as an individual expression of our Article One, Bill of Rights, "First Freedom." The freedom of religion afforded by the United States Constitution secures our natural, god-given, self-evident rights that are also also guaranteed by several international human rights treaties.

"Freedom of religion is the freedom of an individual or community, in public or private, to manifest religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship, and observance. It is generally recognized to also include the freedom to change religion or not to follow any religion. Freedom of religion is considered by many in many nations and people to be a fundamental human right." -- Wikipedia

Anyone who has genuine appreciation for the Cannabis plant, for any or all of its many uses and benefits, is reminded that deep in our hearts, we are all our own ministers. I trust that others will be inspired by my example, but everyone makes their own choices. California Cannabis Ministry encourages everyone to start their own individual ministries. I believe it is spiritually and legally meaningful for each of us to openly claim our rightful place in the most ancient, truly global Cannabis culture, even if doing so is judged an act of "civil disobedience" by unobjective courts.

It is recommended that you read this entire website for the research and knowledge being passed on. The THC Ministry website also offers a wealth of essential information. You are invited to write to projectpeace@gmail.com to subscribe to the ministry newsletter and join the discussion.
